Watermelon, Feta and Mint Salad Bites

MAKE:  a simple fruit and cheese summer appetizer.

Summer fruit, salty cheese and fresh herbs… could there be a better combination in hot weather?

This summer I planted a bunch of different herbs in pots on our deck…. mint, parsley, basil, and rosemary. I love being able to walk right out of my kitchen and snip a few ingredients for a recipe.

I’m a big fan of watermelon… and feta cheese. I’ve always wanted to try and make a salad with that combination. Since I had all of this mint growing on our porch, I thought I’d make a simple appetizer with it, inspired by a watermelon and feta salad (and my caprese bites on a stick). It was so good!
